We badly need more active mods, and an episode discussion posting bot, but I think the volume of discussion there is promising, if not pretty good.
My gripe with !anime@lemmy.ml is that one of their mod (N3DSdude) is a subreddit hoarder on Reddit. Not only is he inactive in most of the subreddit he moderates on Reddit, he's also inactive on Lemmy. This person has no interest in growing the community aside from hoarding as many communities on Lemmy as possible.
There needs to be another c/anime on a different instance.
Well someone seems to be silently modding in this /c
Some redundant episode discussion threads that I posted this morning have disappeared.
Rightfully so, I might add.
So something is going on behind the scenes... which is a good thing.
edit: never mind. Memory fault.
The last action by a moderator on that c/ was from 27 days ago according to their mod log.
It's really unfortunate that the largest anime community on Lemmy is operated by a person who currently "moderates" 292 subreddits on Reddit. And if any reasonable moderator can tell you, there's no way you can possibly be able to split your time across that many subreddits.
In my honest opinion, literally any other anime community is better than the one owned by a subreddit hoarder. This entire idea of hoarding subreddits/communities goes against the single most important principle of Lemmy, which is federation.
But I can't change your opinion. What you do next is up to you.
Oh yeah you're right, and my memory is apparently faulty.
I just want lemmy and /c/anime to succeed so bad...
!anime@lemmy.world (it appears that @vole@lemmy.world might be rolling out their own episode discussion bot, which is something I'm looking forward to)
!anime@ani.social (no activity here, but it looks like a new community and they're looking for a moderator)
I want Lemmy to succeed as well, but not at the cost of growing a community for a subreddit hoarder. The two of us being here is a step forward in ensuring the success of Lemmy.
Yeah, !anime@ani.social doesn't have much activity because I realized that I didn't really want to compete with the already-established ones (!anime@lemmy.ml and !anime@lemmy.world) but I am working on adding other specific/niche communities like !evangelionmemes@ani.social and !animewallpapers@ani.social. I only plan to "start" them though and I want to let other people take over eventually because I couldn't take care of them all on top of the admin work for the instance.
The anime community. Seems awfully dead over here on Lemmy. :/
!anime@lemmy.ml is pretty good.

Some alternatives you might want to consider:
